PA condemns Hamas decision to break off truce talks
Ha'aretz report: Palestinian Authority officials condemned Hamas for its decision to break off cease-fire talks.
Palestinian Foreign Minister Nabil Sha'ath on Saturday accused Hamas of jumping the gun, pulling out of the talks before the Palestinian officials could meet with them to explain what happened in closed-door meetings at the summit.
"They listened to the speeches on television and declared their decision to stop the dialogue and stop listening," Sha'ath said in an interview with Future TV, based in Lebanon.

Palestinian officials say the Hamas walkout Friday may not be final and there's still a chance for a truce. Hamas, known for its pragmatism, would not risk a confrontation with security forces and would quickly resume talks, they said.
Includes details on an earlier Hamas statement that it will resume suicide attacks.
